hazy
英 [ˈheɪ.zi]
美 [ˈheɪ.zi]
- adj. 朦胧的;模糊的;有薄雾的
- n. (Hazy)人名;(瑞典)哈叙
hazy 薄雾的词源不详,可能来自德语hase,野兔,灰白色的兔子,因野兔在中世纪德国民间神话中通常笼罩着一层神秘色彩,后用于指海上薄雾。进一步来自PIE*kas,灰白色,词源同hare.恰好与薄雾的微白色相吻合。
- hazy (adj.)
- 1620s, hawsey, nautical, of unknown origin. Some connect it with German hase "hare," an animal which plays an important part in Germanic folklore, with many supernatural and unlucky aspects in medieval times (among the superstitions: a dead hare should not be brought aboard a fishing ship, and the word hare should not be spoken at sea). Another suggestion is Old English hasu, haswe "gray." Related: Hazily; haziness.
